In general, in this current era, the wealthy Song Dynasty did not lack food.

The food shortage is a capital like Kaifeng and a special area.

Even if the surrounding areas of Kaifeng City are plains, there are many excellent fields to be used for cultivation; unfortunately, with the touching yields of this period, it is impossible to feed millions of military and civilians in Kaifeng City.

Only by relying on the power of the world, it can be transported through continuous transportation.

It was only a thousand years ago that in ancient times, it supported the operation of such a busiest city on the entire planet at that time.

The result? Since the Jin soldiers surrounded Kaifeng City last year, the grain transportation has been completely cut off, and part of the stored grain in the city has fallen into the hands of the Jin soldiers.

The rest of the food has been eaten now, and it is basically the end of the way.

Theoretically, as long as you persist for a while, and wait until other areas of the Song Dynasty through the canal transport, you will continue to transport grain, and the grain shortage will naturally be solved.

The problem is, Hu Biao and the others are very clear:

The current court where Empress Maud is located is a deformed product that is lacking in prestige and is compromised by many parties.

In order to gain the recognition of officials and gentry in other regions of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Laojiu will not be recommended to rebuild a Southern Song Dynasty just like the original historical line.

Under the instructions of Hu Biao and others, Emperor Maode made quite a lot of compromises in some experiences in his later generations.

What are the harsh policies of Huashigang and other harsh policies that promise that the Song Dynasty will never marry, will not pay tribute, will not submit to the emperor, will the emperor guards the country, and will the king dies in the country.

It is considered to be a throne that makes the emperor not so easy to sit on, so that Zhao Laojiu can give up and win the hearts of the people.

The most critical means are to divide a large part of the power of the court while rewarding the local area, and use it to win over the hearts of local officials and gentry.

Such an approach has achieved obvious results.

At least, local officials and gentry, as vested interests, do not support Zhao Laojiu at all, and they are thinking about starting the stove again.

However, the consequences are also very serious.

Hu Biao and others were not worried about the long-term consequences, such as the possibility of causing the late Tang Dynasty, and the situation of separatist forces in various places.

As long as their new army is trained and the whole family has defeated the Jin people, with great power and strong army, they will naturally be able to re-subdued the place step by step.

Then, based on some of the methods left behind, let Queen Mode, Yue Fei and others slowly improve it.

The problem is that now, facing such a weak court, can local money and food be handed over simply as before?

According to Hu Biao and others' inference, it will still be possible to hand over some of the people, but it is difficult to live in Kaifeng City with a population of 600,000 or 700,000 people today.

The more important point is to use Hu Biao and his team training methods.

If you want to train an elite army, eating enough is the most basic point. Otherwise, the soldiers will have a look of food and are seriously malnourished, so they will have some yarn.

Therefore, the total amount of food to be consumed will be quite terrifying, and the gap will be huge...

When everyone was feeling a little frowning due to the huge pressure on food, the young man Lang Qing suddenly thought of something.

After his eyes lit up, he quickly suggested:

"Lao Hu, next I will take the Ministry of Works to research and manufacture new army equipment; who do you want to take people to Xijing, that is, Luoyang, and there must be food there."

"What do you mean?" Hu Biao immediately became energetic after hearing this.

The others also used their eyes to urge this guy to speak up quickly.

Under such circumstances, Lang Qing began to talk about his reasons in detail: "I remember that Luoyang was not captured by the Jin soldiers during this time when the Jin soldiers attacked the Song Dynasty.

In this way, we can look forward to this place in Hanjiacang in Luoyang City.

The so-called Hanjia Cang is said to be a large grain storage base built during the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, and some say to be built by Emperor Taizong of Tang.

But no matter when the people built it, in the 1971st, more than 500,000 kilograms of grain were dug out from a certain underground grain warehouse ruins.

These are the grains left by the Tang Dynasty. After a thousand years, they can not only eat them, but even a large part of them can successfully germinate.

Including the grain that was dug out many times in hundreds of years ago, I believe that the total amount of grain stored in Hanjia warehouse is more than one million kilograms.

In addition, Luoyang has not suffered any war this time, and he can always get some food back, which should be able to alleviate the big problem.

It is easy to transport the food back. Kaifeng is only more than 400 miles away from Luoyang.

Although the canal dug by Emperor Yang of Sui was now unable to move after some big ships were blocked, it was still easy to transport them back with some small boats and some boaters in key places."

After hearing this statement, Hu Biao immediately started watching among netizens.

Finally, he looked at the old snake who was smoking a trumpet cigarette and said, "Old snake, you brought the windmill, Li San, Fenghuahui, Fan Zhu, a total of five people to Luoyang?"

"No problem~"

"Okay~"

The netizens who were named above all knew the importance of food problems and immediately expressed that there was no problem.

However, after giving a solution like Han Jiacang, the expressions on everyone's faces were only a little relaxed, and they did not completely relax.

To put it bluntly, this is a simple math problem.

Even the harvest from this trip to Luoyang, including the food collected from the Luoyang government, reached an astonishing three million kilograms; there are so many people in Kaifeng City, and the average number is only about four kilograms.

The civilians dig some wild vegetables and cook porridge, which saves them and can eat them for a while.

However, those new troops who were planning to counterattack the Jin Kingdom must eat and drink well during high-intensity training.

Given the current actual situation where there is no oil or water in the food, only four kilograms of food can you eat cleanly in one or two days?

Fortunately, after being inspired by Lang Qing, Balong, a history enthusiast, came up with a good suggestion.

This rookie with the title of Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue organized the language and started to propose: "Lao Hu, I have a solution here.

The salt industry in the Song Dynasty was sold by the government, and salt induced a method also appeared, but the money collected was all about silver and money, which was an important source of wealth for the Song Dynasty court.

It’s useless to take money now. It’s better to copy the homework of the Ming Dynasty later and let merchants from all over the south of the Yangtze River transport food directly, so that they don’t have money anymore.

Depending on the amount of grain they handed over, a specific amount of salt citation was distributed.

In this way, there may not be too much food in each batch; but for the sake of amazing profits, those merchants with great hands and eyes will definitely transport food in a steady stream."

Balong's voice fell, and the team seemed to be inspired, and added a sentence:

"Since you can copy the homework of the Ming Dynasty, you can do it. Let's start selling official positions. Some officials who have vacant vacancies and some other maids, and you can sell them for food.

With the above food means and sources, it should be able to last until this year's food harvest.

As for the trouble caused, just wait until you get over the Jin soldiers and wipe your butts slowly, and nothing big will happen."

After hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief; as the team said, as long as they had enough food to spend this period of time.

When they mainly use gunpowder weapons and the new army they formed was formed, all problems were not a problem.

Perhaps the process of rectifying the situation is more painful, and it is much better than the original shame of Jingkang.

In the following time, everyone relaxed their mood to eat and drink; mainly because they knew that they would be very tired every day afterwards, and today's opportunity was rare.

When the wine reached the end of the cup, everyone soon became drunk.

Suddenly, Huang Yizhi, who was already a little above, slapped the table hard and shouted:

"Damn it! This mission has only been more than a month since now. Why does it feel like it has been a long time? I want to browse my phone and watch it, and it's a bit like a twisting lady."

When Hu Biao, who was also above, became interested.

After turning my eyes, I had some ideas in my mind, but I was a little worried.

For this reason, even though I didn't know how much I drank, I still used an impeccable sitting position, sat upright there with my back and drinking with netizens, and asked:

"Miss, can you arrange a black strip for your brothers or apply glass to your skin? How about quality?"

"Isn't it just a stroke? It's no difficulty~" The imperial concubine answered immediately, her tone was quite normal; but with her eyes as she circulated, she could see that the girl was a little dissatisfied.

Some people are very unfamiliar with Hu Biao's question.

While speaking, I walked straight to the back hall.

But two or three minutes later, the imperial concubine who reappeared in front of Hu Biao and others, had already changed her image.

Specifically, after pulling up the hair, tear off a large part of the hem of a skirt and then becomes a small short skirt.

At the same time, there were a pair of black socks with letters on top of their white and tender legs. As the rumored one, it was from the "Pili Family".

To be honest, after the old man browsed his phone for a long time, in the eyes of the old SPs, the imperial concubine's outfit was not only friendly, but also quite seductive.

But Hu Biao was still stubborn and said, "What! You're okay~"

Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine above was also very powerful at the moment, and she opened up directly with the sound of yelling "I'm just making do with it."

In front of more than twenty people, with a "squeeze" sound, he tore the socks on his legs.

Good guy! I don’t know whose throat, another sound of swallowing saliva sounded; then, everyone looked at each other for a while, and a huge laugh suddenly came from everyone’s mouth.

That night, everyone drank and ate meat, danced, sang and bragged until very late.

This was also the most relaxing night they had in this Jingkang Shame mission...
